Dr. Carolyn Hamm studied the effects of dandelion root on rare cancer called chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. It typically affects older adults and is very serious. John Di Carlo was a 72-year-old cancer patient suffering from leukemia. He was sent home to live out his final days after all efforts to eliminate his cancer failed. In an interview with CBS News, he told them he was advised to drink dandelion root tea as a last effort. His cancer went into remission only four months later. His doctors said the dandelion tea was indeed responsible.

This root has been used medicinally since ancient times for its various health benefits. However, the most powerful benefit to come out of this common weed is something that medical researchers are super excited to have “discovered” – which is its potential to cure cancer!

This potent root builds up blood and immune system- cures prostate, lung, and other cancers better than chemotherapy. According to Dr. Carolyn Hamm, dandelion root extract was the only thing that helped with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. This form of cancer typically affects older adults.

John Di Carlo, who at the time was a 72-year old cancer patient at the hospital, was sent home to live out his final days after all efforts failed to treat his leukemia.

He told CBC News that he was advised to drink dandelion root tea as a last ditch effort. Perhaps it should have been the first option offered in his treatment plan, as his cancer went into remission only four months later! His doctors attributed this to the dandelion tea that he drank. Recent studies have shown that dandelion root extract can work very quickly on cancer cells, as was evidenced in Di Carlo’s case. Within 48 hours of coming into contact with the extract, cancerous cells begin to disintegrate. The body happily replaces these with healthy new cells.

Dr. Carolyn Hamm does warn that dandelion root tea can interfere with chemotherapy, and can negatively impact the treatment. It is always best to consult with your doctor before choosing a treatment option, however, the natural ones are always the best!
